Why are we featuring 18-year-old Tony Mosen, his Mohawk hairdo, and
guide dog Gilbert on the front cover? We wanted to shatter the
stereotype that "all blind people are alike". People with vision
impairments, like their fully sighted counterparts, are unique.
Providing the services desired by each member is our challenge.
See Tony's profile on page 46.
